Ethereum

Ethereum price rallied as the on-chain analytics revealed a smart trade made by the whale named pension-usdt.eth. This whale closed a long position of 10,000 tokens with 3x leverage, which was half of its total long positions. This perfectly timed trade made an extra $2.39 million in profit.

Although it has made profits in this trade, it still looks positive about the asset’s future price. It holds another 10,000 tokens in a long position with an unrealized profit of approximately $2.34 million. The open limit order to exit this trade at $3,710 shows that it manages risks properly as the asset approaches levels of resistance while market liquidity and volatility continue to increase.

Ondo Finance Strengthens Ethereum’s RWA Leadership

However, the data from the network highlighted that Ondo Finance, one of the emerging players in this tokenized real-world assets space, issues tokenized versions of stocks, ETFs, and US Treasuries. By integrating traditional financial assets on the blockchain, this protocol has the potential to increase institutional adoption, enable faster settlement times, and enable traditional finance to interact with the decentralized space.

Ondo Finance (@OndoFinance) issues tokenized real-world assets, including equities, ETFs, and Treasuries.

According to RWA_xyz data, approximately seventy-seven percent of the total value locked of Ondo is on the network, and this constitutes approximately eleven point six percent of the asset’s RWA TVL. This data further cements the token’s status as the preeminent layer one blockchain for finality of settlements of on-chain assets that are subject to regulation.

ETH Signals Major Breakout With $4K+ Target in Focus

Moreover, the data from Bitcoin Consensus pointed out that the token is showing strong bullish indicators with prices trading around $3,350, pressing closely beneath a resistance while forming a huge ascending triangle. It indicates a steady rise in demand with higher lows, which is a precursor to a strong breakout. The targets based on the ascending triangle are expected to be around $4,200 and beyond.

Analysts believe the breakout would lead to the price of the token moving past the $4,000 level, reigniting the positive trend. The growing volume of trades cooperatively with the market conditions would be the catalysts for the trend to continue. If the trend gains further momentum, the price would move beyond the resistance level, marking the trend’s continuation.
